BitScope Blade flexible power and mounting solution for a single Raspberry Pi and HAT
Build reliable industrial strength workstations, servers and cloud computing solutions with Raspberry Pi. BitScope Blade offers robust power & mounting for Raspberry Pi, HATs, Displays and BitScope.
It is available in three editions: Uno, Duo and Quattro.
BitScope UNO
BitScope Blade Uno is a flexible power and mounting solution for a single Raspberry Pi computer. Blade Uno solves the power problem when using Raspberry Pi in industrial and other mission critical applications.
It has a built-in 5V switch mode power supply capable of powering the Raspberry Pi, one HAT and up to four high current USB devices connected via the Raspberry Pi. It can also provide power to two more USB devices connected via the USB sockets on Blade itself (subject to a the total blade power budget).
Blade Uno can accommodate a standard mini-breadboard in the HAT slot for circuit prototyping. It can even be used to power and mount the Raspberry Pi 7" Touchscreen Display, one Raspberry Pi, a HAT and up to four BitScopes!
Full access to Raspberry Pi I/O including I2C, SPI, UART, PWM and GPIO is provided via the Blade HUB CAP expansion socket underneath the Raspberry Pi. Connect personality cards (e.g. a real-time clock, operation status displays, or almost any other physical I/O that conform to these standards).
It is the perfect computing platform for makers, students and engineers using Raspberry Pi.
BitScope DUO
BitScope Blade Duo is a desktop, rack or wall mountable power and mounting solution for a pair of Raspberry Pi computers. It solves the power problem when using Raspberry Pi in industrial and other mission critical applications.
It has a built-in 5V switch mode power supply capable of powering two Raspberry Pi and up to eight USB devices which are connected via the Raspberry Pi (subject to a the total blade power budget).
It can be used with simple plug packs, 12V batteries, low cost uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and even passive power over ethernet (PoE) solutions. Blade Duo can even be used to power and mount the Raspberry Pi 7" Touchscreen Display, two Raspberry Pi, and up to eight BitScopes!
Full access to Raspberry Pi I/O including I2C, SPI, UART, PWM and GPIO is provided via the Blade HUB CAP expansion socket underneath each Raspberry Pi. Connect personality cards (e.g. a real-time clock, operation status displays, or almost any other physical I/O that conform to these standards).
Ideal for building reliable stand-alone desktop and server systems with Raspberry Pi.
BitScope QUATTRO
BitScope Blade Quattro is a desktop, rack or wall mountable power and mounting solution for four Raspberry Pi computers. It solves the power problem when using Raspberry Pi in industrial and other mission critical applications.
It has a built-in 5V switch mode power supply capable of powering four Raspberry Pi and up to sixteen USB devices which are be connected via the Raspberry Pi (subject to a the total blade power budget).
It can be used with simple plug packs, 12V batteries, low cost uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and even passive power over ethernet (PoE) solutions.
Full access to Raspberry Pi I/O including I2C, SPI, UART, PWM and GPIO is provided via the Blade HUB CAP expansion socket underneath each Raspberry Pi. Connect personality cards (e.g. a real-time clock, operation status displays, or almost any other physical I/O that conform to these standards).
Ideal to create compute clusters, private clouds or build farms with Raspberry Pi. Experiment with containerisation.
